Cow vigilantism is the equivalent of blasphemy killings, makes every Indian a target

Killing of Faridabad’s Aryan Mishra should frighten us not because he was mistaken for a Muslim cow smuggler. India should worry that this phenomenon of arming vigilantes with legitimacy, weapons and licence to kill has gone on for a decade. It’s the equivalent of blasphemy rule where everyone’s a target.

Gau rakshak criminality has gone unchecked. Inmates have now taken over the asylum

Gau rakshak criminality is flying so thick and fast, and unchecked that it’s now killing Hindus too. Faridabad cow vigilante killed a Hindu teenager ‘taking him to be Muslim’. This is theatre of the absurd. Inmates have taken over the asylum and will have permanently damaged India’s fabric before long.

  1. It’s laughable how The Print tries to draw patently false analogies between cow vigilantism and blasphemy murders. If that be the case indeed, why was The Print pussyfooting around the issue of blasphemy when Ms. Nupur Sharma was targeted by radical Islamic clerics and mobs? Why were such unequivocal castigation and condemnation not issued in The Print’s editorial back then?
    So much for Mr. Shekhar Gupta’s “un-hyphenated” journalism.

  2. There is absolutely no threat to India’s “fabric”. It’s just Haryanvis being Haryanvis. These things hardly happen elsewhere.
    The Print lives to blow things like these way out of proportion so as to please the Left liberal cabal.
